About this listen

A moving story about a young girl and her family who are forced to flee their beloved home after violence erupts all around them, and their journey to make a new sense of home.

One day someone asks me,

Where is home?

And I don’t know what to say.

Is home here or there?

Told from the perspective of a young refugee girl, debut children’s book author and New Voices winner Maham Khwaja tells the story of a family forced to flee their home due to violence. The story balances the family’s love for one another and hope for the future with the harrowing journey to escape on foot, travel by boat, and then finally resettle in a safe place. Through it all, the young girl tries to hold on to all the pieces of her life before and find a way to rebuild a sense of home.
